    I absolutely love that this isn't a "traditional" Mapo Tofu in the slightest - this is just good old, simple home cooking. It's clear this is something that your family actually makes and eats.

      @VitusAvitus 3 місяці тому +6

      I was surprised she didn’t use doubanjiang, substituting with pepper and sriracha. Everything else seemed fairly by the book (more veggies than usual but she’s turned it into a one pot kinda thing)

      Really? Other than slight variation this is basically how I've been doing it for years, oh no haha

    I love how she describes chopping the vegetables as just "Make them into squares" nice and easy to understand. And also easy to understand that dont need to have perfect measurements

    Sichuan Mapo Tofu slaps. Japanese Mapo Tofu slaps. Excited about Korean Mapo Tofu.

      Mapo Tofu is Chinese and Sichuanese! It’s fine for other E. Asian cultures to put a spin on it, but the origins should be respected.

      That knife is extremely dull. And, that cutting board was moving around (needed a towel underneath).

    Nice knife work, the tofu cutting was very satisfying to watch, but also a bit stressful when she cut sideways towards her hand.. but I know she wasn't really pushing that hard so there's no way she could have hurt herself, but still haha
